Codependency
Peter Stathakos
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, BBA, MDiv, MSW, CMAT, CSAT
Depending on others' approval or a sense of purpose is a very stressful life. It can feel very scary to be alone while having someone intimately close. It can feel overwhelming. Despite these extremes, you wish for more stability. I have experience helping people discover and build internal structures so they can be themselves and feel safe with others.
Reach out today to get the care that you deserve.

Liz Witzke
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Qualifying), CSAT
An exaggerated sense of responsibility, compulsive need to take care of another, difficulty expressing boundaries, excessive reliance on or emotional ties to a partner or loved-one - these are all expressions of co-dependent relationships. I will help you break it down and understand the how and why in order to strengthen your sense of self. The aim is to find yourself, so that you do not lose yourself in relationship with others.

Pre-Licensed Professional, RP (Qualifying), MSc, MA
I'll draw on relational, attachment-based, and psychodynamic approaches to help you understand and shift codependency patterns. 'Codependency' has become a stigmatized term, which can leave people feeling stuck or even ashamed. I think it's important to have a compassionate lens towards this relational dynamic and why it's developed. First, we'll work together to explore what codependency is like for you. What needs does it fulfill or not? What fears does it soothe or ignite? What longings are being expressed or repressed? We'll also explore how you can fulfill your needs for intimacy and safety in ways that also honour your boundaries. We may need to make space for inner conflicts between connection and individuality. How can those co-exist in your relationships? Alone, it may be hard to see beyond codependency—together, we can open up new possibilities for a more fulfilling relationship with yourself and others.

Azin Heydari
Registered Psychotherapist, RP; MA
Codependency often manifests physically before it appears in behaviour—through tension, activation, fawning, such as people-pleasing, or fear of loss. I assist clients in understanding these patterns, exploring their origins, and reclaiming a sense of internal safety and self-confidence outside of dependency. Together, we cultivate stronger boundaries, emotional stability, prioritizing the self, and in navigating healthier relationship dynamics

AL Kaibzhanov, Psychotherapist & Coach | Anxiety, Trauma & EMDR Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, LCSW
Codependency often involves placing the needs of others ahead of your own while struggling with boundaries, self-worth, or emotional dependence. I help clients identify unhealthy relationship patterns and develop greater self-awareness, confidence, and independence. Together, we'll work toward building healthier and more balanced relationships.

Candace Plattor
Drug and Alcohol Counsellor, M.A. in Counselling Psychology from Adler University
When we keep trying to put other people's needs ahead of our own, we lose ourselves in terms of our self-care and our self-respect. Often families do this with the addicts they love - and it creates a lose-lose situation for everyone concerned,

Monika Georgieva
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., RP
When your focus is always on taking care of others, it’s easy to lose touch with your own needs, boundaries, and sense of self. Codependency can leave you feeling drained, unappreciated, or even resentful, yet unsure how to step out of old patterns. In therapy, we’ll work on strengthening your self-worth, building healthy boundaries, and creating relationships that feel balanced and supportive. Together, we’ll help you move from people-pleasing and self-sacrifice toward confidence, clarity, and authentic connection.

Ryan Bittinger
Pre-Licensed Professional, Registered Psychotherapist (Q), DPsychotherapy, LPCC, CAS
We all have needs that must be met. But what happens when we are made to be responsible for other people's needs? Or when we feel out of control of whether our needs are met or not, and are totally dysregulated when others don't meet our needs? Codependency can be a scary roller coaster, but through intentional work we can begin to understand healthy ways to have our needs met and be in control of our boundaries and expectations of relationships.
